Black History Month: Where do you find inspiration?

Join Talawa Theatre Company’s Artistic Director – and director of our upcoming production of KING LEAR – Michael Buffong as he discusses who, where and what inspiration is…

Inspiration can strike at any time. As theatre-makers, where do we turn for inspiration?

As part of Black History Month, the Royal Exchange Theatre and Talawa Theatre Company have teamed up with together to ask playwrights and theatre-makers: What inspires you?
